On 27 May 2015, I had a volunteer shift and afterwards, as the sun was shining, I called in at the Reader Rock Garden, where I found this beautiful Sunflower. There was rain in the forecast so I thought I'd better make the most of the blue sky while I could. Alberta is bone dry everywhere, with wildfires especially further north. So, much as I really dislike the rain, we desperately need it. From the Garden, I drove through the adjoining Union Cemetery and then another nearby cemetery, and then called in at a wetland in SW Calgary. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helianthus

Not the most photogenic Sunflower, but I was still happy to see it in someone's garden when I was on a bird walk on 20 September 2012, across the Bow River from Mallard Point, Fish Creek Park. I'm also enjoying seeing the bright colour and the beautiful blue sky in my image this morning, as it is dark and raining today. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower
